@Tuckerbox At least you have a limbsaver. I never paid much attention to the recoil pad on mine but when I got it back recently I had a look. It might be 25mm thick but I reckon its as hard as my 4x4 tyres. Wouldn't be doing much at all.
Nice piece BTW @gundoc I got the 416 back in the late 90's. 800ish from memory. Cost me more for the scope and ring/bases than the rifle.
Cheapest ammo I could get back then was 400gr roundnose at 180 a packet. next cheapest was 400gr federal at 150 a packet but I had to buy 5 at once.
yeah nah.
Got some reloaded then made some of my own after buying some dies.
I am under no illusion that there are a lot more expensive calibres out there but its funny that the ammo is almost cheaper now than back then and considering its 20 years later-omparatively it is way cheaper.
